Winterized Maxi Dress

Had a lunch "date" with hubby and wanted to dress up a little while still being warm. I never wound up hemming this particular dress since I wanted a to-the-floor hem to really maximize the maxi look (I'm such a geek). Big mistake. I was picking up my skirt for every step to prevent tripping over it. I need taller shoes (here's to you, Cee)! :)

I usually hate stretchy adjustable rings with a passion. I've had ones in the past that were too tight, too loose or just uncomfortable to wear in general. This one though is perfect. It conforms nicely to your finger and is comfortable to wear all day.

I really like this look! I've been mulling over ways to make my maxi dress wearable in the winter too and I'm glad you posted this look because I'm quite inspired by it. The cowl neck works quite nicely here!
